You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 492

"Mr. Andrews, I don't need this, sorry..."

Lucille refused.

She did not have the appetite. She couldn't help but moved toward Zoel and whispered, "Zoel, I'm full. Can I go first?"

"I'll go with you."

As Zoel spoke, he got up and took his coat.

He also noticed the hidden meaning behind Mark's action.

"Zoel, you are not cool." Mark even changed the way he addressed Zoel at that moment, "I just want to give her a small gift. Why are you taking her away? I can offer her a job."

He was trying to use business to reconcile with Zoel.

"Mr. Andrews, we are business partners. If you still need some paintings, you can get them at my place any time. But..." Zoel held Lucille in his arm, "If my girlfriend likes your gifts, I can buy for her."

Lucille was caught off guard when she was wrapped in Zoel's arm. She was so nervous that she shivered.

She stood still and didn't dare to move an inch.

"Is she your girlfriend?" Mark raised his eyebrows and tried his best to widen his small eyes, "You have really hid your relationship pretty well."

"Yes, Mr. Andrews. I didn't expect you to have other intentions, therefore I didn't make an introduction earlier." Zoel responded calmly.

Mark clearly knew that Zoel was making it up. After all, he did not notice any intimacy between the two when they were standing next to each other. They did not look like a couple at all. Anyway, Mark did not retort.

He was speechless suddenly.

At that moment, the hotel attendant walked over and stood at the entrance, "Mr. Andrews, the few bosses are about to leave. Would you like to go over?"

"Yes!" Mark just found an excuse to leave.

After Mark left, Lucille took a big step and quickly broke free from Zoel's arm. Her face was as red as an apple. She whispered, "Thank you, Mr. Parker. Sorry for the inconveniences."

"It's not a big deal. You are my employee. Of course, I'd protect you." Zoel replied.

"Thank you."

Lucille thanked Zoel in low voice after realizing that there was no other intrinsic meaning in his words.

"Let's go. I'll take you to eat something else."

While putting on his coat, Zoel wanted to hold Lucille initially. As he stretched out his hand, he changed his mind.

Then he trod out by himself and waited for Lucille at the entrance.

Lucille put on her coat as well and went down the stairs with him.

"Yes, yes, you're right. I'll ask them to make changes when I am back."

They heard Mark's voice at the corridor before they reached the entrance of the hotel.

Obviously, he was talking with the bosses whom the waiter had mentioned a moment ago. His tone was very different from the conversation they had in the private room.

When they arrived at the end of the corridor, Zoel stopped his pace without warning. He reached out his hand and said, "Come on."

"Huh?"

Lucille saw Zoel standing in front of her and with his hands stretched out.

"Shouldn't we continue with our act? It's not good to let Mr. Andrews see otherwise." Zoel raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a bright yet honest smile.

Lucille stood there, feeling that what he said did make sense, but she was still a bit reluctant.

Seeing her hesitation, Zoel took a step forward to hold her hand and strode out.

Lucille always got shy easily. Being held by Zoel, her face turned red gradually.
